The Twins already have their 2021 regular season schedule, as baseball heads toward a possible "normal" year, and on Wednesday the spring training schedule was released.
The Twins will play 33 exhibition games in Florida, including 16 at Hammond Stadium in Fort Myers. The "home" opener is Sunday, Feb. 28 against Baltimore. The Grapefruit League season ends Tuesday, March 30 against Pittsburgh at Hammond.
The regular season opener is Thursday, April 1, in Milwaukee at what will then be called American Family Field.
The Twins said ticket information for Hammond Stadium will be released at a later date. MLB games are being played before no fans this season.

La Velle E. Neal III has covered baseball for the Star Tribune since 1998 (the post-Knoblauch era). Born and raised in Chicago, he grew up following the White Sox and hating the Cubs. He attended both the University of Illinois and Illinois-Chicago and began his baseball writing career at the Kansas City Star. He can be heard occasionally on KFAN radio, lending his great baseball mind to Paul Allen and other hosts.
Phil Miller covered three seasons of Twins baseball, but that was at a different ballpark for a different newspaper. Now Miller returns to the baseball beat after joining the Star Tribune as the Gopher football writer in 2010, and he won't miss the dingy dome for a minute. In addition to the Twins and Gophers, Miller covered the Utah Jazz and the NBA for six years at The Salt Lake Tribune.
